Ted Lieu: “There is a 24/7 camera that shows the reflecting pool. If someone went into the pool and made a 250 foot gash, it would have been seen trump is lying again. Everyone knows it, but the people at the Justice Dept are randomly going after people to soothe trump’s fragile ego”

REUTERS: “Enrique Tarrio, Proud Boys leader sentenced ‌to 22 years for seditious conspiracy over the January 6, 2021 riot, said he planned to get between $2 & $5 million.” We are so far off the cliff. 🇺🇸 www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

King Charles: "The U.S. Supreme Court Historical Society has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160 Supreme Court cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances."

Terrific take on the intellectually bankrupt use of "both sides" by the lazier members of the corporate media.

Trump: I'm going to destroy an entire civilization. We're going to keep killing people in boats. Senator Kelly should be executed. ICE protesters are domestic terrorists. Immigrants are vermin. Raskin: Donald Trump is bad for this country. Bash: Do you regret your heated rhetoric, Rep. Raskin?

The problem with having a criminal President who promotes conspiracy theories, incited an insurrection, & lies habitually about everything and is enabled by an entire political and media movement that does the same is that after a while people don't believe him and create their own narratives. #whcd

If a powerful and evil person reviled my colleagues, and dehumanized them, and said they should be executed for treason, and I went and broke bread with that person at an event to promote and celebrate and normalize him, I would be a shitty person, and I hope people would be shitty to me.

The story of the Iran war is that Trump lost it in the first days. Everything since has been trying to deny that cardinal fact. You can see this by the fact that everything happening since has been trying to break free Iran’s hold on the strait, something it didn’t have before the war.

The Trump administration, from top to bottom, is filled with spiteful malicious bullies who insist that they're innocent aggrieved victims.

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

A reminder while Republicans bitch about Dems finishing the redistricting fight they started: they have full control of gov’t— they can pass a law banning gerrymandering any time they want. They won’t. Republicans aren’t mad gerrymandering exists; they’re mad that they’re not the only ones using it.

The GOP entered this redistricting under the rather childish delusion they were going to gerrymander, and nobody would gerrymander them. In TX, MO, and a half dozen other states, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind

Doesn't look like agreeing to Trump's absurd demand for an end to edited interviews got you much, CBS. Maybe next time choose *not* to get extorted?

Rep. Pat Ryan: "The fact that the president did not understand that closing the strait would be the obvious and immediate leverage point for the Iranians just shows how out of depth they are in initiating this war."

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”

Wow. Check out this Aussie telling it like it is. 1/2

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room. The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction. The Health guy collects raccoon dicks. It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

These people were not wrongly convicted. There is no evidence of prosecutorial misconduct. There is no reason to vacate these convictions. Unless you are a convicted criminal president trying to rewrite the history of your coup attempt.

Trump just posted a graphic video of a woman being beaten to death with a hammer

This is so well done. 👌

If you see a guy on television with his bone jutting out of his arm, I think even a layman is entitled to infer they’re looking at a fracture.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Donald Trump is deranged. He must be impeached and removed from office. Republicans who don’t stop him will have blood on their hands, and anyone who carries out an order to bomb civilian targets will be complicit in war crimes and will be held accountable.

So let me get this straight: the goal of Trump’s war with Iran is to end up back in the Obama nuclear deal he pulled out of, and to “reopen” the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the conflict began. That’s the strategy?

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but we are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

How embarrassing for Trump… CPAC this morning: “How many would like to see impeachment hearings?” Crowd cheers 🤡

Hmmmm 🤔

Can’t help but feel like guys flying Gadsden flags at home are now going to work to tread on me.
